    How to live in Victory

    I have a general sense of victory over that specific kind of sin at this time in my life.

    Dead to the Law

    By His law, you mean? No; He is bound by His nature: He will not do anything that goes against His nature and that is a fact. God violated the letter of the sabbath law in John chapter 5; but He did not violate the spirit of that law and He did not depart from His nature, as God is holy and...

    How to live in Victory

    What Bible verses have I denied? I have given biblical substantiation for my statements, which you deny. You have three fingers pointing back at you (Matthew 7:1-5, Luke 6:41-42).

    How to live in Victory

    Jesus defines lust as adultery in Matthew 5:28; which is a violation of one of the ten.

    How to live in Victory

    Nope. The Bible clearly teaches that someone who has faith can lose the salvation that such faith provides for them (Luke 8:12-13, Romans 11:20-22), if they are not sealed by the Holy Spirit, if their faith is nominal, shallow, or lukewarm, and not a faith that is unto righteousness (Romans...

    Dead to the Law

    Jesus revealed to them the spirit of the sabbath day laws; but they were correct in their understanding of the letter of those laws. Of course they should have listened to Him; He was that Prophet spoken of by Moses, that if they would not heed His voice they would be cut off.

    Dead to the Law

    The spirit of the law is according to God's nature; and God is bound to do what is in His nature. He is not limited by what the law requires but He is bound to do what is in His nature; which is basically what is required by the spirit of the law. Nothing is impossible with God but it is...

    How to live in Victory

    If you have the light shining into your life, it will expose the cobwebs of sin in your life; and it is the blood of Jesus that will cleanse you from all sin as you continue to confess it. Specific scriptures teach us that we have indwelling sin (1 John 1:8, 1 Timothy 1:15, Romans 7:18...

    How to live in Victory

    I know that on that day He is going to reward me with good for the gold, silver, and precious gems that I have laid on the foundation of Jesus Christ; and for laying that foundation in certain people's lives. The blood of Jesus does indeed justify a man (Romans 5:9)...it also sanctifies him...

    Dead to the Law

    They were correct in their understanding that it was a violation, according to the letter, to do any work on the sabbath (Exodus 20:10).

    Dead to the Law

    He is fully obedient to the spirit of what is written, just as He commands us to be (Romans 7:6).

    How to live in Victory

    I believe that it is you who are causing harm on this forum; in that you teach the false, gnostic doctrine that we do not have indwelling sin. In denying that you have sin, you are deceiving yourself and the truth is not in you (1 John 1:8) and you would attempt to teach others to have the same...

    Dead to the Law

    See Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7, Romans 8:4, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 13:8-10, Galatians 5:14; Romans 5:5. These passages will teach you that those who are under the New Covenant have the law written on their hearts and in their minds. See 1 Corinthians 9:21. We are...

    How to live in Victory

    You have sin as well. The fact that you deny this means that your sin is greater. It has affected you to the extent that you are deceiving yourself and the truth is not in you, according to 1 John 1:8. So, your sin includes self-deception and being void of the truth.

    The Distinction of Persons in The Holy Trinity

    I do not identify as Oneness. I identify myself as having leanings towards Oneness doctrine. I do emphasize the Oneness of the Lord in my teachings; but I do believe that there are distinctions between the Persons in the Trinity; and technically this classifies me as Trinitarian.

    Dead to the Law

    Most definitely Christ is the sabbath. Which does not necessarily nullify the 4th commandment as something that we might keep in order to express devotion to the Lord. Just remember that the sabbath was made for man and not man for the sabbath. It is not meant to be a legalistic requirement...

    Dead to the Law

    Amen. The law is abolished from us as concerning condemnation. And also, the law is a governing factor in the life of the one who is under the New Covenant (Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7, Romans 8:4, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 13:8-10, Galatians 5:14; Romans 5:5). Also, James...

    How to live in Victory

    In 1 John 1:8, it is clear that we all have indwelling sin. (So, in 1 John 1:9, it is clear that we are cleansed from all unrighteousness when we acknowledge that indwelling sin; as a divine paradox: for when we cease to confess that sin, we cease from being cleansed; and therefore it is the...

    Dead to the Law

    I know that I do desire to keep the sabbath as it exists on Saturday and do not judge others on the issue but believe what Paul said about it that every man should be fully convinced in his own mind whatever point of view he has on it. I believe that the whole issue of judging as concerning a...

    How to live in Victory

    This: Phl 2:12, Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. means this: 2Pe 1:10, Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for...
